This image was a study of modeling, lighting, texturing and render based on a concept form the art director Sergio Araújo. The intention was to produce a poster for the new Sweet & Spicy flavor, that's the reason for the peppers to be inside a classic chewing gum vending machine

I used Softimage XSI for modeling e lighting, Zbrush to generate normal maps for the peppers and metal pieces, Photoshop for texturing and post, and Mental Ray for rendering.

If I need to critic, I say the chillis are too glossy. Ok, the wood texture seems a little low res, & I think the brick wall are better if they are modeled, than a texture as we see here, since its so up close.
